Editorial Review for Chez Melange – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Attached to the Palos Verdes Inn, this mature restaurant's softly lit dining room is appointed with black-and-gray striped valances and overstuffed booths. The wide-ranging menu extends from home-style to sophisticated: signature Southern fried chicken salad is composed of lettuce, corn and toasted pecans, with chicken chunks in a buttermilk dressing. A sashimi sampler includes seared tuna, yellowtail, salmon and shrimp. House-favorite entrees are Rabbit Three Ways, petite filet with Gorgonzola ravioli and a spicy Cajun meat loaf.

After not being to Chez Melange in quite a few years my family decided to go there for a birthday dinner. Our experience was not good. First started with being out of the wine we ordered, and those not drinking wine waited for their drinks while they tried to find us another bottle (guess they can't multi-task). There were loud and disturbing people next to us that finally got moved and a medical emergency in the main dining room that required paramedics....not the restauants fault but no apology to us for the commotion. The light above the table didn't work so we sat in the dark until the waitress found candles and then the topper was we waited over 30 minutes between starters and main course, which when it finally came the fish was overcooked and greasy. Lucky us, we got to pay over $300 for this wonderful experience....never again, too many fine restaurants in the South Bay to pick from.

the food here is good not great. the service is good as well. just don't do catering with these guys. the service is scattered and stressful, and uses a lot of filler for the whorederves. we had to constantly wait for rock shrimp to come out while no one was eating the little tomato pizzas. the owner (british dude) was underprepared and did not know how to work the grill properly. the son is also rude at one of the weddings i was at. don't know if its because he's going out of business or moving to another location. but i wish them the best of luck, cause if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen!!! great seafood though.
